"What happened at the birth was very traumatic, but it's nothing to do with what happened," George replied.

"A lot more has been made of this than it actually was. I took steroids and sleeping tablets with alcohol."

He added: "I went for a quick fix."

Kerry then pointed out there there's an enormous amount of pressure on someone when you end up in a high profile marriage, and while people can focus on her, what about George?

Speaking about seeing himself in countless magazine pictures next to his wife, he said he looked "huge".

"I took them to trim down and look smaller - not bigger," he admitted.

"It caused me to go doolally for a couple of hours. Literally as I stepped out of the ambulance I snapped out of it," he continued.

The pair, who welcomed their first child together into the world this summer, also spoke about their honeymoon, how happy they are right now following their troubles, and how a recent report claiming otherwise was "completely twisted".

"We're in a normal place - same as every other couple," Kerry explained.
